Femininity is socially constructed from "summary" of undefined by undefined
Femininity is not something that is natural and inherent, but something that is created and developed by society. It is an identity imposed on women, often in restrictive and limiting ways, which affects how they are perceived in the world.- Femininity is a concept that has been constructed by social conventions according to certain standards for quite some time.
- All these guidelines surrounding womanhood shape society's perception of them and the judgement they face from both genders as a result.
- It appears that no matter how hard some may try to fulfill the criteria of being a feminine person, others will always feel that it is not enough.
- This has caused many women to be held back or marginalized in terms of what they can do and how they can express themselves.
- This reflection of absolute power being exerted onto one gender demonstrates the powerful impact of outsiders' messages and how they can determine the meaning of feminitiy.
- Furthermore,the negative messages assigned to any divergence from these predisposed ideas can have damaging effects on self-esteem and confidence.
